DVC-1500C Color Camera Product Brief Rev 2.1 March 2011 www.dvcco.com

The DVC-1500C is a versatile, high performance RGB color digital camerawith functions tailored to high-throughput scientific and industrial applications.It is capable of very low noise at both 20MHz and 40MHz readout rates at12 bits. This camera is based on a Sony ICX285AQ progressive scan interline CCD with an on-chip bayer color filter, and is capable of very low noise at both 20MHz and 40MHz readout rates. The high quantum efficiency of the CCD peaks in the 500-600 nm region of the spectrum.

The DVC-1500C has four basic operating modes: streaming overlapped exposure, streaming non-overlapped exposure, edge-triggered singleframe snapshot, and variable pulse-width exposure. Each mode can be operated at either 20 or 40 MHz and can support variable binning and region of interest operation allowing users to match the needs of their application.

DVCView™ application software is provided with the camera for real-time viewing and image capture. A multi-platform SDK is available to developers, streamlining integration of all DVC cameras via the DVC API.
